ChatGPT’s Remarkable Growth Continues
ChatGPT’s impressive growth as a consumer app continues as the chatbot is on track to hit 700 million weekly active users this week, the company says.
The app had earlier reached 500 million weekly active users as of the end of March, noted Nick Turley, OpenAI VP and head of ChatGPT’s app. He also mentioned that the app has grown 4x since last year.
Exciting Developments and Increased Popularity
The app’s popularity increased after OpenAI launched an upgraded image-generation feature, powered by the GPT-4 model, in March. In early April, more than 130 million users had created over 700 million images in just a few days after the launch.
Additionally, the company has seen an increase in subscribers with ChatGPT now having 5 million paying business users, up from 3 million in June.
In a recent report by Sensor Tower, users are spending more than 12 days a month on ChatGPT on average, only behind Google and X. The report also mentioned that in H1 2025, users spent an average of 16 minutes per day on the app.
